Bathroom break saves neighbors

Neighbors of Renjis Empati, 57, of Borneo are very thankful, and some might say relieved, that he heeded natures call.

When Renjis walked outside to use his toilet he noticed that his kitchen was in the process of being swallowed by a sinkhole. He immediately called out to his neighbors and saved them just in the nick of time.

Said a grateful neighbor: “If it were not for him, most of us would be dead by now.” Approximately 100 neighbors were saved by Renjis Empati’s call to get out of their homes.

Gruesome discovery

What’s for dinner? “My husband!”

Malaysian police arrested a woman whose husband was found chopped into 11 pieces and stuffed into a refrigerator in their posh apartment.

The remains were discovered months after the murder when the place was sold and the new resident moved in to find a disgusting odor.

I wonder what the man did to displease his wife? I’d better be a little more careful around my own wife!

Thugs have contract on crime fighting dogs?!?!

Labrador retrievers Lucky and Flo recently sniffed out a shipment of pirated DVDs worth about $435,000 in a building in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia.

It was at least the second such bust since mid-March, when the U.S. Motion Picture Association of America loaned the dogs to Malaysian authorities because they can detect the polycarbonate and unique chemicals in the discs.

Lucky and Flo are so successful that a crime gang has reportedly put out a contract on them.

Python ate 11 dogs

Well it seems that a bit of a mystery has been solved in a Malaysian orchid. Guard dogs that had been protecting a fruit orchid ended up meeting an untimely end when they were swallowed by a 7.1 meter (23 foot) long python.

Orchard keeper Ali Yusof said “I was shocked to see such a huge python,”. The python was almost long enough to span the width of a tennis court and as thick as a tree trunk.

The villagers didn’t harm the snake, which had been tied to a tree and then handed over to wildlife officials.
